Although Shaoliang and Qin were deliberately disturbed by Xia Yangjun, both sides still understood each other's bottom line and requirements.

For example, the King of Qin, they have found that Shao Liang’s request was to return the three cities of Dongliang, Zhiyang, and Fanpang, and then pay compensation and promise not to invade again. Except for the amount of compensation, the other King of Qin can agree.

Even the situation was slowly changing in the direction that the King of Qin hoped. After all, in this negotiation, Shao Liang deliberately left Wei Xiayangjun, which was a very obvious political signal, indicating that Shao Liang did not want to intervene in the dispute between Qin and Wei.

Although the purpose of the King of Qin was to remove Shaoliang from his vassal relationship with Wei State and gradually let Shaoliang turn to him, the "adhering to neutrality" practice revealed by Shaoliang did not satisfy the King of Qin, but it is undeniable that this was a very good start.

On Shaoliang, Li He, Dongliang Jun and Zhai Hu also explored the purpose of Qin through this negotiation.

The good news is that Qin does not seem to want to attack Shaoliang anymore, and is even willing to pay compensation to stop fighting with Shaoliang. The two sides only have some differences in the amount of compensation.

The bad news is that Qin clearly wanted to alienate Shaoliang and Wei, and even threw out the fat piece of "Heyangyi".

I have to say that Shaoliang is really moved.

A city with a prosperity equivalent to the sum of Dongliang and Fanpang, and the surrounding area of ​​the city is about one-third of the land area of ​​Shaoliang. Not to mention Li He was moved, Dongliang Jun and Zhai Hu were also moved.

On the afternoon of the same day, Dongliang Jun summoned Zhai Hu, Li He, Fan Hu, Yin Qi and others again to tell the latter two of them about the promises and conditions of the King of Qin yesterday.

Sure enough, Yin Qi and Fan Hu were also shocked: Qin State was willing to give up such a price?

In addition to being shocked, the two of them also guessed the sinister intentions of Qin. Yin Qi stroked his gray beard and said, "Qin did not hesitate to tempt it with great benefits. This is to completely rebel against Shaoliang and Wei."

Fan Hu also spoke, "Although there are delicious foods in hand, they cannot be taken. If you take them, you will inevitably offend the Wei Kingdom."

Heyang City, that is a big city that Qin State seized from Wei State. If Shaoliang took this city, what would Wei State think?

At that time, the State of Wei ordered Shaoliang to return to Heyangyi. Will Shaoliang not be able to repay?

If you don’t make any contribution, you will offend the State of Wei;

Communion, offend Qin.

Shaoliang had to offend a country horizontally and vertically, and even launched another war.

"Can't Qin pay anything else?" Fan Hu asked with a frown.

"I'm afraid it's difficult." Dong Liangjun frowned and said, "The purpose of Qin State is to alienate me, Shaoliang and Wei State. If I, Shaoliang, do not connect with Yang, this peace talk will be very difficult..."

"Not it?" Fan Hu asked in a slight question: "Don't Qin State also hope to reach an agreement with me Shaoliang as soon as possible? Otherwise, when Wei State learns the news, he will make a fuss..."

"The trouble is my Shaoliang at that time." Yin Qi interrupted slowly and said: "When the King of Wei asked me to hand over to the King of Qin, I will not hand over to the King of Qin.... If I don't hand over to the King of Shaoliang, I will be evil. If the King of Wei does not agree to his conditions, he can even deliberately drag Wei to intervene and force me to make a choice."

Fan Hu suddenly realized: "I don't think about it."

In the following days, Dongliang Jun and Zhai Hu negotiated with Ying Qian and Wei Yang many times.

As Yin Qi said, the King of Qin was not in a hurry at all, and acted as if, "I am willing to compensate Shaoliang, but I, Qin, can't afford three hundred stones of grain." He insisted on blocking Heyangyi to Shaoliang as compensation.

It is better to say that Qin is not sincere, Shaoliang can't say anything. After all, Heyang City is of great value, but it is undeniable that the Qin King's move is indeed unhappy.

Of course, the King of Qin also said that if Shao Liang was really willing to accept Heyang's compensation, he would not force it and would still be willing to return the three cities of Dongliang, Zhiyang and Fanpang, but the compensation would be gone because Qin could not provide three million stones of food, what would Shao Liang do if he liked it?

Shao Liang had no choice but to do with such a scoundrel.

Including Li He.

After all, if the King of Qin does not cooperate, Li He can still be majestic and intimidating, but the problem is that the King of Qin is very cooperative, can you still point your sword at others?

At this time, there were only three roads in front of Shaoliang.

First, he accepted Heyang City, signed a non-aggression treaty with Qin, and obtained food for at least two years, at the cost of offending Wei.

Secondly, he refused to accept Heyangyi and signed a non-aggression treaty with Qin, at the cost of losing the due compensation. In addition, he was suspected by Qin and Wei at the same time.

Third, he transferred the King of Qin to Wei, expressed his loyalty to Wei, and continued to be protected by Wei, at the cost of seriously offending Qin.

In the face of these three choices, Li He chose the first one.

He said to Dongliang Jun, Fan Hu, Yin Qi and others: "Since you have to offend a country at all times, why not take Heyangyi?"

When Zhai Hu heard this, he also supported Li He's point of view, but Dongliang Jun, Fan Hu, Yin Qi and others were still hesitating. First, Wei State will be the overlord of the world, and second, Qin State and Shaoliang have always been incompatible, and few people are not sure whether Qin State is reliable.

What if Shao Liang offended Wei this time, Wei sent troops to conquer, and Qin State also stood by and watched as before?

Even Li He believes that this should be prevented.

Just when the peace talks between Shaoliang and Qin were in a short stalemate, the envoys sent by Dongliang and Xiayang were also sent to Anyi one after another.

After reading the letters sent by Xia Yangjun, the King of Wei was shocked.

A mere one or two hundred Shaoliang people actually attacked Liyang and captured the Qin monarch to Shaoliang?

He hurriedly sent someone to recruit Gongsun Yan, the prime minister of the State, and said to the latter: "Sometimes ago, Shaoliang sent a small group of elite troops to attack Liyang and captured the King of Qin to Shaoliang. Shaoliang is now discussing a ceasefire with Qin."

Gongsun Yan was also dumbfounded and unbelievable.

Shocked, Gongsun Yan said seriously: "Shaoliang is a vassal state of our Great Wei. How can we leave the sect leader and negotiate with the enemy country? The king should immediately send someone to Shaoliang to transfer the King of Qin to Anyi."

The King of Wei nodded repeatedly, feeling a little joyful.

He had already made the preparation to temporarily abandon Hexi, waiting for him to defeat Zhao and then take back Hexi. Unexpectedly, Shao Liang was so tenacious that he had been defending the 200,000 Qin army for nearly three months, and he even captured the King of Qin.

Doesn’t this mean that the State of Wei can allow Qin to spit out all the Hexi land that he swallowed this time without spending a soldier? It can even force Qin to cede land and pay compensation.

While he was happy, he suddenly remembered something and asked his side: "Will Wang Jing, the prince of Dongliang Jun, still in the city?"

The attendant replied, "I'm still in the city. I came to the palace this morning to ask for the king, but the palace sent someone to send him away."

The King of Wei frowned and ordered: "Hurry, send someone to invite him."

"yes!"

At the same time, in the inn in Anyi City, Wang Xiao, the prince of Dongliangjun, also received a message from his father.

When he saw the content of the letter, he also opened his eyes incredibly.

His Shaoliang actually captured the King of Qin?

Then there is no need to stay in Wei State again to see Wei State’s expression!

The joyful Wang Yi immediately ordered his followers to pack up their things and prepare to return to Shaoliang for several days.

Before he could pack up his things, his followers came in and reported to him: "Young Master, the King of Wei sent a palace servant to invite him."

"Oh."

Even a humble gentleman like Wang Yi couldn't help but laugh at him: "I went to the palace this morning, and the King of Wei was still resting. In just half a day, the King of Wei suddenly recovered. It's amazing."

Some followers said angrily: "Why do you have to pay attention to it, I will set off for Shaoliang."

To be honest, given that Wang Wei was rejected for nearly a month in the Anyi Palace, he felt quite resentful and wanted to leave without saying goodbye as the follower said, and then returned to Wei State.

But reason told him that Shaoliang could not afford to offend King Wei.

So, he followed the palace servants to the palace.

This time, the King of Wei finally met Wang Yi in the palace hall. Even when he saw Wang Yi, he pretended to cough twice: "Wang Yi, the weather has become cold recently, and I am a little uncomfortable. I am not intending to neglect you, don't hold a grudge."

Although Wang Yi sneered secretly in his heart and was even a little relieved, he did not show any clues on his face and said in a pretentious way: "How dare I hold a grudge against King Wei? King Wei is the cornerstone of Wei State. I also hope that King Wei will be in good health."

He just didn't ask about the purpose of the King of Wei summoning him to come today, which made the King of Wei a little unable to say, so he looked at Gongsun Yan, the prime minister next to him.

Gongsun Yan understood and said with a smile: "The king invited the young master to come today, and there was a happy event to tell him... It was because of this happy event that the king suddenly felt refreshed and his body recovered. Can you tell me what kind of happy event is?"

Gongsun Yan had said this, and it would be too deliberate if Wang Yi didn't cooperate, so he pretended to ask, "I don't know what kind of happy event it is?"

The King of Wei smiled and said, "You may not know yet? You Shaoliang did something big this time. A 500 general named Li He in your country led 200 soldiers to attack Liyang and captured the King of Qin. Now the King of Qin is in Shaoliang... After capturing the King of Qin, why worry about Qin not returning to Hexi?"

"oh?"

Wang Yi pretended to be shocked and said happily: "King of Wei, should this matter be serious?"

"It's true." King Wei smiled and nodded, looking kind.

Seeing this, Wang Yi resigned with joy.

The King of Wei could not let Wang Yi leave like this. He quickly called him and signaled Gongsun Yan with his eyes.

Gongsun Yan understood and said to Wang Yi with a smile: "Young Master, wait. Today, the king invited the young master to come, first to inform you of this good news, and secondly, he wanted to discuss with the young master... Shaoliang is a vassal state of my Great Wei. This time he abducted the King of Qin and left the Wei to negotiate with Qin in private. This is inconsistent. I hope Shaoliang can transfer the King of Qin to Anyi, and my Great Wei will come forward to negotiate with Qin. The young master can rest assured that our Great Wei will definitely let Qin return the city occupied by Shaoliang and give compensation."

Wang Yi was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter."

"Young Master misunderstood." Gongsun Yan said with a smile: "The king hopes that the young master will tell Dongliang Jun this matter."

Wang Jie had no choice but to agree and immediately said goodbye and left.

Looking at Wang Yi's departure back, Gongsun Yan frowned and said to the King of Wei: "The king has been perfunctory and neglected Shaoliang and refused to send troops. I am afraid that Shaoliang will be resentful and will not obey and transfer the King of Qin to Anyi."

The King of Wei also regretted: "Why did I know that Shao Liang had such ability at that time?"

After saying that, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "Call Long Jia! Ask him to lead his army... No, lead five thousand martial soldiers to go with Wang Wei, and take the King of Qin to Anyi no matter what!"

Gongsun Yan frowned and thought for a moment, but he didn't stop him.
